Lipid-Protein Interaction of the MscS Mechanosensitive Channel Examined by Scanning Mutagenesis

The mechanosensitive channel of small conductance (MscS) is a bacterial mechanosensitive channel that opens in response to rapid hypoosmotic stress. Since MscS can be opened solely by membrane stretch without help from any accessory protein, the lipid-protein interface must play a crucial role in se...
